    Hardly anyone in Oregon follows the NHL, so my guess would be all over the place, for a variety of reasons.

    I will give the NHL attention if Portland lands a team. Until then...

    We almost got the Penguins in the late 90's. They were having financial troubles and I think Paul Allen was ready to write the check, but Mario Lemieux stepped in and saved them.

    At least I think thats the story. Maybe someone here can corroborate it better.

    Correct. It was so close to happening that the NHL had two different schedules made. 1 for Pittsburgh and another for Portland

    Pens score first.
